Lyra’s voice shook with anger as she said, “Yesterday, you claimed the invitation card and the jewelry were from you. And now you’re saying that BioHealth Solutions–a company that’s been profitable every day and has a long history as one of the best in Vancouver is going bankrupt

She laughed bitterly.

“Really? You’re going to such lengths to blame Chris! I have to admit, you’re consistent.”

Alex’s expression turned cold as he looked at them through the screen of his phone.

“Kingston will cut ties with BioHealth. It’ll become a worthless company,” he said flatly.

“Cut off by the Kingston family?”

“A useless company

One by one, disbelief spread through the room.

“Nonsense, all of it is nonsense. How could Kingston cut a decade–long collaboration while my father is in Los Angeles opening a new Kingston branch?” Chris asked sharply.

“Alex,” Jack called out, “everyone except you knows that BioHealth is doing well–even better than our Lancaster company. I suggest you keep quiet before Chris calls his people to deal with you.”

Mrs. Lancaster, Sophia’s mother, couldn’t let Alex’s claims ruin their plans.

“I never liked you, and what you’re doing now just proves why. You’re only here to cause trouble when we need Chris the most. You’re devious and cruel!”

Lyra quickly added, “That’s right! He’s just slandering Chris because he’s jealous of Sophia and refuses to return her money.”

The murmurs grew louder, everyone chiming in, convinced Alex was nothing more than a poor scammer trying to take advantage of Sophia.

Chris, on the other hand, was admired–a top–ranked fighter, a successful CEO, and part of the wealthy Roland family.

Sophia, however, kept her distance.

As a CEO herself, she had learned to be cautious. With so much money at stake, she asked, “Alex, do you have any proof of what you’re saying?”

“What I’m saying is the truth,” Alex replied firmly.

“But if you need proof, you can find it yourself. It shouldn’t be difficult for someone like you.”

Lyra scoffed, adding fuel to the fire. “If you don’t have proof, you’re just spouting nonsense!”

Sophia understood all too well.

It seemed Alex was making false accusations again. Maybe divorcing him was the right choice after all.

Chris, ever the gentleman, spoke up. “Everyone, I don’t want to cause any more trouble. How about we just forget all this? I’ll tell my father the Lancasters don’t need our help, lest I upset anyone here. It’s hard to be kind these days.”

His words were perfectly timed, and he looked every bit the victim.

Chapter 44

The Lancaster family began to grow restless.

“Chris, you’ve helped us get three invitation cards, and now we’re just one step away from partnering with Kingston and acquiring BioHealth!” Mrs. Lancaster said, glancing at Lady Lancaster for support.

Everyone seemed to share the same opinion, unwilling to let the fortune slip away.

Lady Lancaster’s gaze hardened as she turned to Alex.

“You loser, return the money Sophia gave you, and never come back here. You’re not welcome anymore!”

“You really have malicious intent to harm this fainily!”

Alex’s eyes grew cold. He had been trying to help them, but it only led to him being treated like a scammer.

Before Alex could respond, Lyra cut off the connection, “Everyone, let’s forget about this scammer.”

Lady Lancaster looked at Chris warmly.

“Chris, I have money set aside–meant to be our family’s last resort. And Sophia, can you gather all the available cash from the Lancaster company and give it to Chris?”

The Lancaster family agreed with Lady Lancaster’s decision, showering Chris with praise.

“Chris, don’t worry about that loser. He’ll be divorced by today, and we’ll all be family soon!”

“Yes, Chris, you’ll be my son–in–law soon. That loser is clearly jealous of you–handsome, successful–we all believe in you.”

Just then, Sophia’s phone chimed with a notification. Amidst the compliments to Chris, she checked her phone and found a transfer of $100,000 from Alex.
